My thoughts & prayers for the Scott family! Tragic news!

Shocking & tragic! My thoughts are with his family.

Oh that is terrible news! My condolences to the Scott family. RIP. *(I sticky'd this post).

A sad day... "Tony Scott was the best mentor - when he saw something punk rock that he could slip through the system ... he pounced."

Now the Sun is reporting that the original reason for his suicide given has been denied by his family: [quote]Tony Scott's family 'deny he had inoperable brain cancer' Initial reports denied as brother Ridley halts filming on new blockbuster[/quote] [url=http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/4497668/Tony-Scotts-family-deny-he-had-inoperable-brain-cancer.html]http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/4497668/Tony-Scotts-family-deny-he-had-inoperable-brain-cancer.html[/url]

Back to being a mystery again, I just wonder if anybody had a clue about what he was going through, it is so sad and shocking. At least he had a full life.

This is so incredibly sad news, especially to learn how it all ended for him. From what I read, I gathered that Tony and Ridley were very close, and surely not just on or through business terms. So, Ridley if you read this, I wish that you and your family will somehow manage to get through this. I mean this deep from my heart... Many of you Ridley and Tony Scott fans probably know that 'The Duellists' [1977] wasn't actually Ridley's first film project, it was in fact [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0346645/]'Boy and Bicycle'[/url] which he had written and directed in 1965. It can be found on 'The Duellists' DVD and features Tony as the boy skipping school and cruising town, which was also his first role, as far as I know. So, in memory of Tony and in honor of his and Ridley's work, I'd like to share this short film with you in [url=http://youtu.be/KyM54sHC7Co]full length[/url]. May he rest in peace and be in a better place without pain. A fan.

A source close to him apparently said he had inoperable brain cancer. What a terrible thing: he knew it would gradually destroy him as a person, worse than Alzheimers. Truly tragic for such a creative talent. At least he did have a full life doing what he enjoyed most. It is a reminder for each of us to live life to the fullest, to be kind to everyone and to let our loved ones know they are loved, because each day could be our last.

wow, really sad. R.I.P Tony Scotty.

Its funny Ridleys older brother died right after the release of Alien. His second brother now also passes away after the Prometheous release.

Rest in peace Mr. Tony Scott.

Most sincere sympathies to everyone who knew and loved him.
